Love Éire Grand Finale
Sue has loved Ireland for as long as she can remember.
As a teenager, she wore a T-shirt that proudly said “I Like Irish Boys.”
As a young adult, her love for Ireland only grew — the culture, the people, the humour and the land.
Now, as a woman, she’s doing what she’s always done best: calling it in.
This isn’t just a T-shirt. It’s a full-circle moment. A declaration. A manifestation.
Sue loves Ireland — and she’s ready to meet the Irish man who loves her back.
